DELAWARE AT BOSTON

Uncle Sam’s Big Ship Arrives at Home After the Coronation. Boston, July 10.—The United States battleship Delaware, which was the largest and most powerful warship at the coronation review last month, arrived here as spick and span as when she was looked over by the critical eyes of the world’s naval experts in England. The ship came across at a very leisurely gait The Delaware’s officers and crew will be given a day or two of rest after they coal ship and then will begin another series of tests, including those of new equipment adopted by the navy, the nature of which comes under the recent order of Secretary Meyer, forbidding the divulging of naval defense secrets.
